Brentford are apparently looking for a replacement for Ivan Toney if the forward leaves in January.
It is no secret that the English striker is being pursued by a number of Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea.
Toney is scheduled to return from his gambling ban in January, which could lead to a possible relocation.
The Gunners are currently regarded as the favourites to sign the clinical striker, and fans will be encouraged by the recent club news.
Brentford are ‘weighing up a final choice’ on a replacement for Toney, according to TeamTalk, with MLS player Brandon Vazquez apparently at the top of the list.
The report goes on to state that Thomas Frank wants to keep hold of his star and hand him a new contract if possible but a big offer from another Premier League club could change that stance.
Mikel Arteta’s side has also been linked with moves for several other strikers, including Victor Osimhen and, more recently, Dominik Solanke.
But with the striker market currently limited, they will no doubt have to pay a hefty premium to get a deal done in January.
